Spinach Bread Dumplings in Yellow Pepper Sauce

Premium

1 hr

Main

Freezer-friendly
These spinach bread dumplings take inspiration from traditional German dumpling-making. Crafted with bread and vegetables, they are lightly fried and then steamed to perfection. We've paired them with a vibrant yellow pepper sauce, infused with fresh herbs and a touch of nutritional yeast for a delicious, cheesy flavour twist.

This was delicious! Perfect for a cozy winter night. I used day old bretzel for the dumplings and regular flour and they came out great, I'll just add a bit more seasoning to them next time. I'm already looking forward to leftovers tomorrow!

I really like the combination of the salty dumplings and the sweet yellow pepper sauce. Its a perfect match.

Interesting, but I think roasting the bell peppers would add a little more punch of flavor in the sauce. I'll give it a try next time I make the recipe.

This was delicious, I added some smoked tempeh bites on top for some extra protein and it turned out amazing. So cozy too!

Hi PUL, Can you tell me how many kg is "a slice of bread" please ?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 20, 2024, 10:21 p.m.

Hi there, Marguerite! Four slices of bread weighed 220 grams when making this recipe, or 55 grams per slice. For us, a slice of bread typically weighs around 35-55 grams, depending on the type of bread and thickness 🙂

Thanks a lot for your reply PUL 🙏✨ I notice that

I usually love the flavours of all the PUL recipes but I thought this really lacked in flavour. However, it’s a bit of a different recipe which I loved :-)

Hey Maybritt, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad you enjoyed the uniqueness of this recipe, though we're sorry the flavour wasn't a hit for you. 💚

I was the same - I couldn’t get the right flavour profile in the dumplings I assume. Day 2 I pulled the dumplings apart in some broth and hand blended them. Then I added the remaining pepper sauce and added some vegan parm on top. Was awesome

The dumplings definitely are what make this soup delicious. The actual soup tasted strongly of bell pepper which makes sense but was too much for me. I also added blended up beans to the soup to make it more filling

Could I add pumpkin along with yellow bell peppers?

Hey Devanshi, yes, you can add pumpkin along with the yellow bell pepper if you'd like 😊 The pumpkin will add a sweet, earthy flavour. Just make sure to adjust the cooking time to ensure both are tender!

Can I not use fresh spinach for this recipe?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Oct. 15, 2024, 6:15 p.m.

Hi Anjali, we prefer frozen for this recipe but you can use fresh spinach instead if you prefer! Just cook and squeeze out the excess moisture before adding it to the mixture. This will help maintain the right texture in the dumplings 🙂

maybritt - Nov. 12, 2024, 8:12 p.m.

I used fresh and it worked really well
